Terms of Use

Version 1.0 · Last updated 2026-09-06 · 简体中文版

These terms form an agreement between you and TOPPING INC. LIMITED (brand: TPOAD, “we”, “us”) covering the Agents Butler desktop app, this website and the community (together, the “Service”). Please read them in full before you use the Service; section 10 (disclaimer and limitation of liability) and section 12 (governing law and disputes) affect your rights.

1. Acceptance and who we are

  • Operator: TOPPING INC. LIMITED, RM18, 27/F, Ho King Comm CTR, 2-16 Fa Yuen St, Mongkok, Kowloon, Hong Kong. Contact: contact@tpoad.com.
  • By downloading, installing or using the Service you confirm that you have read and accept these terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not accept them, please do not use the Service.
  • If you use the Service on behalf of an organisation, you confirm that you are authorised to do so and these terms also bind that organisation.

2. Eligibility, accounts and testing phase

  • The community is for users aged 16 and over. Where the law of your country sets a lower age of consent for information society services (not below 13), users who have reached that age but are under 16 need the consent of a parent or guardian. For users in mainland China, we do not offer the community to minors under 14.
  • The Service is currently in invite-only testing. Features, quotas and availability may change; we may limit or pause registration, and some online features may not be offered in every region.
  • Your account is personal to you and may not be lent, rented or transferred. Keep your registered e-mail address and your signed-in devices secure. A sign-in token is valid for 30 days and you can sign out of all devices at any time. Tell us immediately if someone else is using your account.
  • Local scanning and cleaning in the desktop app do not require an account.

3. What the app does — and does not

  • The app scans your computer read-only and shows candidates. Nothing is moved, archived or deleted until you confirm item by item.
  • Once you confirm, items are moved into the quarantine folder (a local isolation directory), compressed into an archive on the same drive, or handled by the owning tool’s own official prune command. The app does not act on files without your confirmation.
  • Quarantined items are kept 30 days by default; the app reminds you 3 days before expiry; once an item has expired and that reminder has been displayed for 3 full days, the app releases the quarantined copy. You can turn automatic release off in Settings and keep reminders only. Released copies can no longer be restored by the app.
  • Isolating files on the same drive does not by itself free disk space; compression reports a change in logical size. The figures shown in the app explain which is which.
  • Suggestions produced with model assistance are suggestions only and never pre-select an item. Excluded directories and your local protection list are not affected by model output or community content.
  • The app uses “new version reminder plus download from the website”; it does not download or install updates on its own.

4. Your responsibilities and recovery

  • Cleaning is your decision: review the list before you confirm and keep your own backups of anything important. You are responsible for what you choose to clean.
  • What we provide as a safety net: everything you confirm goes into quarantine first and can be restored — as a batch or item by item — for 30 days by default. We cannot restore items after the retention period, after you release them manually, after automatic release has run, or if you have switched the relevant feature off.
  • Do not use the app on computers you are not authorised to administer. If you manage devices for other people, obtain their authorisation yourself.
  • Do not circumvent quotas or access controls, disrupt or attack the Service, scrape or bulk-download other users’ content, reverse engineer the app (except where the law expressly allows it), or use the Service for unlawful purposes.

5. Community rules

The community is a place for users to exchange experience about AI workflows. The following are not allowed:

  • content that breaks applicable law;
  • harassment, threats, personal attacks, hate speech and discriminatory content aimed at particular groups;
  • spam, flooding, and misleading promotion or advertising;
  • infringing someone else’s intellectual property, trade secrets or personal information, including publishing another person’s paths, screenshots, e-mail address or employer details without consent;
  • distributing malware, executables or scripts, or persuading others to run commands that could cause damage;
  • impersonating another person, our staff or our moderators;
  • content unsuitable for minors.

When you share cleaning results or screenshots, remove local absolute paths, client and project names and other sensitive details yourself. Shared reports do not include file contents by default.

6. Reports, enforcement and appeals

  • The community provides a reporting function. We review reports and normally respond within one working day; during the testing phase this may take longer, and we will say so in the case status.
  • Measures escalate with the seriousness of the breach: removing content, restricting features, muting, and suspending the account. A suspension for an ordinary breach lasts 30 days. For serious or repeated breaches we may close the account without reinstating it.
  • We tell you the reason and the clause relied on. You may appeal within 30 days of the notice, through the appeal function in the community or by writing to contact@tpoad.com; a person — not an automated system — reviews the appeal and replies. An appeal does not prevent you from asking us to delete your account.
  • You may delete your account and your messages at any time. Reports and enforcement records are kept for the periods set out in the Privacy Policy; after account deletion only an anonymised trace remains.

7. Content you post

You keep the rights to what you post. So that we can run the community, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to store, display and distribute your content within the Service and to use it as necessary to handle reports and protect the Service. The licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies others have saved or forwarded and for anything we must retain to handle reports or comply with the law.

You confirm that you hold the rights needed for what you post. Rights holders who believe community content infringes their rights can write to contact@tpoad.com with the location of the content, evidence of their rights and contact details; we will review promptly, and the affected user may submit a counter-notice.

8. The rules library and community content are not deletion instructions

  • The rules library is published under the open-source licence stated in its repository; anyone can inspect it and propose changes.
  • Rule entries, model suggestions, community posts and rules packs or commands shared by other users are reference information only. They are not instructions to your computer and are never executed automatically. Any cleaning still depends on your confirmation on your own machine.
  • Only rules that we have reviewed and signed, and that are compatible with the current engine, can be installed. Downloading or bookmarking a community rule does not mean we warrant the outcome of applying it; check it in the app before you act on it.
  • Community content cannot trigger a scan, a deletion or script execution on your computer. Do not run commands you do not understand.
  • Crowd-sourced labels are one source of evidence for the rules library and pass human review before they can be adopted. They are not automatic deletion instructions.

9. Intellectual property

  • The app and its interface, icons, documentation and this website are our property and are protected by law. Except where the law provides otherwise, or where a component is open source and used under its own licence, you may not copy, modify, redistribute or create derivative works without our written permission.
  • “TPOAD” and “Agents Butler” and the related marks are our brand identifiers. Do not use them in a way that could cause confusion or suggest an association without our written permission.
  • Third-party tool, product and company names shown in the Service are used to identify compatibility only. The rights in them belong to their respective owners, and their appearance does not imply any association with or endorsement of us.

10. Test software, disclaimer and limitation of liability

  • The Service is in a testing phase and is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted or error-free or that it fits your particular purpose; differences in disks, permissions and third-party tool versions can affect what it identifies.
  • To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect loss, loss of data, loss of profit or business interruption. Our aggregate liability for direct loss is limited to the amount you have paid us for the Service — which, while the Service is free, may be nil.
  • Nothing here excludes or limits liability for our wilful misconduct or gross negligence, for death or personal injury, or any liability that consumer protection law does not allow to be excluded. Rights that you cannot waive under the law of your country are unaffected.

11. Changes to the Service, suspension and termination

We may add, change or discontinue parts of the Service. Where a change is likely to affect you materially we will announce it in the app or the community in advance. You may stop using the Service, delete your account or uninstall the app at any time. If you seriously breach these terms or applicable law we may suspend or terminate your account. If the Service ends, the local features already installed on your computer do not stop working because of that, but online features (community, model assistance, version reminder, rules updates) may become unavailable; we will make reasonable efforts to leave you time to export your data.

12. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and disputes arising out of these terms or the Service are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Hong Kong. If you use the Service as a consumer and the law of your country gives you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts or to rely on its mandatory provisions, those rights are unaffected. We encourage you to raise any dispute with us first at contact@tpoad.com.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. Updates are published on this page with a new version number and “last updated” date; material changes are announced in the app and the community with a reasonable notice period. Continuing to use the Service after a change takes effect means you accept it. If you do not accept it, you can stop using the Service and delete your account.
